AL-QUARAN:- SURAH: AT-TAKVIR

1 ) When the sun Kuwwirat (wound round and lost its light and is overthrown ).
2 ) And when the stars shall fall;
3 ) And when the mountains shall made to pass away;
4 ) And when the pregnant she-camels shall be neglected;
5 ) And when the wild beasts shall be gathered together;
6 ) And when the seas shall become as blazing Fire or shall overflow;
7 ) And when the souls shall be joined with their bodies;
8 ) And when the female (infant) buried alive (as the pagan Arabs used to do) shall be questioned.
9 ) For what sin she was killed?
10 ) And when the written pages of deeds (good and bad) of every person shall be laid open;
11 ) And when the heaven shall be stripped off and taken away from its place;
12 ) And when Hell-fire shall be kindled to fierce ablaze.
13 ) And when Paradise shall be brought near,
14 ) (Then) every person will know what he has brought (of good and evil).
15 ) So verily, I swear by the planets that recede (i.e. disappear during the day and appear during the night).
16 ) And by the planets that move swiftly and hide themselves,
17 ) And by the night as it departs;
18 ) And by the dawn as it brightens;
19 ) Verily, this is the Word (this Qur'ân brought by) a most honourable messenger [Jibrael (Gabriel), from Allâh to the Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him)].
20 ) Owner of power, and high rank with (Allâh) the Lord of the Throne,
21 ) Obeyed (by the angels), trustworthy there (in the heavens).
22 ) And (O people) your companion (Muhammad (Peace be upon him)) is not a madman;
23 ) And indeed he (Muhammad (Peace be upon him)) saw him [Jibrael (Gabriel)] in the clear horizon (towards the east).
24 ) And he (Muhammad (Peace be upon him)) withholds not a knowledge of the unseen.
25 ) And it (the Qur'ân) is not the word of the outcast Shaitân (Satan).
26 ) Then where are you going?
27 ) Verily, this (the Qur'ân) is no less than a Reminder to (all) the 'Alamîn (mankind and jinns) .
28 ) To whomsoever among you who wills to walk straight,
29 ) And you will not, unless (it be) that Allâh wills, the Lord of the 'Alamîn (mankind, jinns and all that exists).
